   I, Shyamala Palanisamy is currently pursuing my Phd in Computer Science from University of Texas at San Antonio. I worked in semi-conductor industry for five years due to my interest in Computer Architecture. My passion towards teaching gave me four years of experience with students and opened my eye into the world of cyber security. So, I decided to do research in Memory Management and Security, especially focusing on IoTs.
